Those are LEDs (light emitting diodes). They are used because they 1) use far less electricity than incandescent bulbs, and 2) they are brighter (thought they actually do not produce the same lumen as regular incandescent hence the large array) and 3) they have a much longer lifespan than other bulbs.

Why are traffic light bulbs exchanged with LED?
LED light source stability and energy saving
Can somebody tell me what an led traffic sign is?
LED traffic signs utilize LED bulbs to give high density, clear signage. High on the safety rating scale, LED options offer movement (blinking lights) and are easily readable from a distance. Whereas reflective signs require an outside light source to be readable, LED signs are lit from within.
Who invented the first LED light bulb?
Thomas Edison invented light because he made light so why not bulbs
What is a UFO grow light?

What type of diode produces light when properly biased?
That would be an LED or Light Emitting Diode an LED is a light
What are led light?
Typical old fashioned traffic lights use incandescent bulbs and also generate some heat. Therefore, in colder climates the lights themselves helped keep the lights free of ice and snow. Light Emitting Diodes (LED) have now replaced the bulbs in many traffic lights because although they cost more, LED's last longer and use less power. However, they can be a problem in colder climates as noted.

How has the traffic light evolved over time?
Traffic lights do not evolve. However their design changes over time. For instance they now used colored LED lights instead of white light bulbs and colored filters. This means that they are cheaper and last longer without needing bulbs replaced.
LED stands for Light-Emitting?
LED stands for Light-Emitting Diode.
What does LED stand for in LED lights?
Light Emitting Diode - LED
How many ways does LED light TV?
3 ways, each pixel is made up of 3 LED (Light Emitting Diode) each a different color, red, green, and blue, that is if you were asking in reference to a LED flat panel TV! !
How does an OLED screen differ from a normal LED screen?
Put simply, a standard LED screen is essentially a lamp made from light-emitting diodes, whilst the OLED screen is made from millions of small LED's, the 'O' stands for 'organic'.
